Yeah, kind of a callback to the beginning when I was talking about one of my favorite authors, Nora McInerney. I love the quote that she says, you are under no obligation to make lemonade out of lemons. Same type of thing. You don't have to do good things or make something good out of something terrible that happens to you. It's allowed to just be bad.

But she took it a step further and like you said, really used her experience to help others. And I think for me, one of the most, one of the biggest takeaways of her story was is kind of just what she said at the end about when people ask her, would you have gone through this experience if you had a choice? And she says yes, because of what it did for her and how it changed her outlook on life.

And even though it was what she described it as an obstacle, yes, I would say that was an obstacle for sure. It pivoted her outlook on life. And Sometimes we need those obstacles in whatever form they come to make your life richer and give you a different perspective.

And I love that because while some people at the outset, you know, from the outside looking in for someone to say, yeah, I would go through that. Like, I accept that. I would do it again. You're kind of like, what?

But personally, again, going through, I would have preferred Ian not pass away, of course, but his death really changed my life and really changed my perspective on life and how I live my life.

It's all about perspective. And we kind of glazed over a little bit her before she got to Antarctica. She went through a lot with her husband. Yes.
